Peach, the IC & RC were combined. Remember after the challenge Jeff tossed flint for fire to the winning team? So they won immunity and a reward as well! So at Lancer's game, picking Fei Long for both gave us 5pts for each challenge.

Click on the Group Picks link, next to the Member List link. The groups gives real good detail, scores and all! I think that's new, isn't it, puddin? I don't recall ever seeing it! But maybe it was there and I just overlooked it? dunno...

Here's the top 15, all w/ the same score. I've always wondered...how is the roster placement determined when they all have the same scores? (on any game) Is it decided by the TIME they made their picks?

I made a list too but thought I'd like to get a feel for them for a couple of weeks first.

How much of an advantage is it to lock in right now?

"Extreme Pool: In this game, you must predict the order in which remaining Survivors are voted off. You do not have to lock in your picks until you feel ready to. However, you do not score points until you do so, and the total number of possible points is much higher at the beginning of the season, so if you wait too long, even though your picks may be better quality, it may be too late to make up lost ground!"

"Extreme Pool details: At the point that you feel that you have reasonable confidence in your ability to predict the remaining Survivors vote-off order, you may pick the order in which the remaining Survivors are voted off and lock your votes in. Once the next weekly deadline passes, your votes are locked in and cannot be changed for the remainder of the season. You do not start to accumulate score until your votes are officially locked in and a weekly deadline passes. After each episode, the top name on your list is removed (or multiple names are removed in the event multiple Survivors leave the game), and you are given one point for each Survivor on your list that remains in the game. For example, suppose at the beginning of an episode your list contains the names in this order: Ed, Trixie, Alice and Ralph. One Survivor is voted off (Alice). Since one Survivor was voted off, one name is removed from the top of your list (Ed). Your list now contains Trixie, Alice and Ralph. The remaining Survivors are now Ed, Trixie and Ralph. You score one point for Trixie and one point for Ralph since they are still in the game AND on your list. You do not score points for Alice even though she is on your list because she left the game. You do not score points for Ed even though he is still in the game because he is no longer on your list. If two Survivors had been voted off, your list would have been shortened by two (Ed and Trixie) and the scoring would continue as before."

i am playing as meatballs for rff and as another name for another pool game. can't say which is me at this time. i've locked my picks for both ids to score the maximum points. at least for the first two weeks.

peach, you can lock in anytime you want. Before you lock in...go to the spoilerish thread & check the most recent list, make changes if you want and go ahead and lock in. Then you can start getting points. The boot list puddin posted yesterday is probably a lot more accurate than the one I used 3 weeks ago!
